snow monster cupcakes.....!

....these are the things i think about....that's normal right?.....and are there other well known "snow monsters"...?.....well regardless....i tried making these 2 in cupcake form...!.....these were for my nephew who is also a star wars fan but also has one of those dreaded december birthdays....which kinda gets lumped in with christmas....happy birthday jarad!.....

...started with a red velvet cake mix then iced cupcakes with some melted candy wafers in blue for the bumble and black for the wampa.....(btw if you are not a fan of icing...this is a great way to ice cupcakes as an alternative)

....the inspiration for the bumble is from the Candy Valley Cake Company's FB page...made with coconut and candy wafers for the detail.....also did some mini's because abominal's have families....right?

....and inspiration for the wampa cupcakes are from geeks are sexy sent in by a reader...made with coconut and the detail also done with candy melt....(and man i totally forgot i did a wampa cupcake before as part of this post! who what have thunk someone would do 2 wampa themed cupcakes and forget about one....duh, i do too much star wars related stuff!!!)

....and you get a bunch "cute" snow monster cupcakes.....and realistically the wampa should win the fight....but since the bumble is really good at heart versus those man eating wampas.....i'll say the bumble wins....and he's just goofier too!....

.....merry christmas to everyone out there who celebrates!!!....my kiddos are young so it's really fun this year....2 out of 3 could not fall asleep tonight....ahh i remember that feeling when the next christmas day just could not come fast enough and it was impossible to fall asleep that night......fun to live that again through them now....thanks again for stopping by during this busy holiday season!!!

ps if you have never seen the old rudolph tv special or star wars this post is probably very confusing to you....sorry!

My hat (or Stormtrooper/Clone Trooper helmet) is off to the master cupcake designer!!! As a fan of both classics, the decision for a winner would boil down to who would I be able to bring myself to eat first!!! :0)

These are adorable! I have Bumble slippers and my puppy is in a constant battle with them, but I love Bumble sooo much I keep wearing them! Thanks for sharing, I prefer my food cute over creepy so I say Bumble all the way! New follower from Homework
